Sense and Sensibility is a novel by Jane Austen, published in 1811. It was published anonymously; By A Lady appears on the title page where the author's name might have been. It tells the story of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor (age 19) and Marianne (age 16 1/2) as they come of age. They have an older half-brother, John, and a younger sister, Margaret, 13. The novel follows the three Dashwood sisters as they must move with their widowed mother from the estate on which they grew up, Norland Park. Because Norland is passed down to John, the product of Mr. Dashwood's first marriage, and his young son, the four Dashwood women need to look for a new home. They have the opportunity to rent a modest home, Barton Cottage, on the property of a distant relative, Sir John Middleton. There they experience love, romance, and heartbreak. The novel is likely set in southwest England, London, and Sussex between 1792 and 1797.

Autorenporträt
Jane Austen (1775-1817) was een Engelse schrijfster die bekend stond om haar scherpe humor, scherp inzicht in de menselijke natuur en tijdloze portrettering van liefde, maatschappij en klasse. Ze schreef zes grote romans, waaronder Sense and Sensibility, Emma en Pride and Prejudice, die lezers al meer dan twee eeuwen boeien. Haar werken worden geroemd om hun scherpzinnige observaties van de sociale structuren van haar tijd en hun complexe vrouwelijke hoofdpersonen. De romans van Austen behoren nog steeds tot de meest geliefde en meest gelezen romans in de Engelse taal.
